For The Quiet Peace You Gave Me

Mom, I think about those quiet moments with you where nothing big was happening, but I still knew I was cared for. No announcement, no drama, just that calm feeling of being around you and being able to settle.

I understand that better now. Peace like that is not accidental. You gave me a kind of comfort that did not need to call attention to itself, and it still helps me find my way back to myself.

I hope today feels steady and kind to you as you keep recovering. I love you, Mom.
